Boil 2 cups of water in a pot, add Goya® yellow rice, and stir well. Bring to a boil for 1 minute, cover, and let the liquid reduce on low heat. Continue cooking for 25 minutes or until the water has completely evaporated. Stir with a fork, remove from heat, and let cool in a bowl. Heat Goya® olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, then add the onion and garlic, sauté for 2 minutes or until the onion is translucent. Next, add the shrimp and Spanish chorizo, then sauté for 5 more minutes, pour in the peas and peppers, and cook for 1 more minute. Pour the sautéed mixture into the bowl with Goya® yellow rice, add parsley and cheese, then mix the ingredients and season with salt and pepper if necessary. Add Tres Estrellas® rice flour to remove excess moisture and mix. Shape the croquettes with your hands, place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and freeze for 10 minutes. Dip the paella croquettes in egg and then in breadcrumbs. Repeat the process once more to form a double layer of breading for each croquette. Fry the paella croquettes in hot oil for about 2 minutes, or until they are golden brown. Remove excess oil with paper towels. Serve the paella croquettes on a plate, sprinkle with parsley, and accompany with aioli.
